With a population of around 2.1 million, Brisbane is the capital city in Queensland. The city consists of a number of urban villages each with a distinct character. The area also benefits from a sub-tropical climate, which offers residents an outdoor lifestyle virtually all year around. Mild winters tend to be dry and warm with cooler evenings.
Brisbane’s property has experienced considerable growth over the last 10 years and has seen many new developments in both high-end apartments and in suburban areas to meet the needs of families in the area. The most sought after locations tend to be in close proximity to the CBD and the river.
A short hop on a ferry offers access to The South Bank, which is quite a cultural hotspot as home to the Queensland Performing Arts Centre, Gallery of Modern Art, State Library and Queensland Museum.
In terms of employment prospects, Brisbane is experiencing growth in the construction, education, health and retail sectors due primarily to substantial population growth across South-East Queensland. Equally, business services account for around a quarter of the Brisbane economy.
